Attended the Variety Show. It was everything promised. Inspirational, funny, and very entertaining. Yes it reminds me of the variety shows of the past but it is so much more. I felt like I had a new family and was peeking in on all the fun. Orleans county and Albion need to go and see this treasure in the heart of downtown.

Classiest place in Albion!

The evening is a wonderful live performance experience that, I dare say, would be hard to find anywhere else.
The ticket prices are unbelievably reasonable and should fit into most household entertainment budgets. There's no need to drive to Rochester of Buffalo for top-rated live entertainment. It's all right here in our little village. Come and experience our small town's secret!
